LUKE Evans has landed the lead role in Universal’s Dracula reboot.

Described by The Hollywood Reporter as “a historical-oriented origin story”, the script follows a young prince who, when the lives of his wife and child are put in danger by a bloodthirsty sultan, risks his soul to save them and in the process becomes the first vampire.

Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless wrote the script, while long-time commercials helmer Gary Shore is making his directorial debut.
